Little yellow-shouldered bat
Species of bat
The little yellow-shouldered bat (Sturnira lilium) is a bat species from South and Central America. It is a frugivore and an effective seed disperser.[2][3]
It roosts alone in tree cavities, on branches, vines, and under palm leaves, usually keeping to the same roosts day to day.[4][5] There is evidence to suggest hypothermia is a thermoregulatory strategy to help adjust metabolic levels.[6] Ambient temperature has been noted as a greater influence on mating than food availability.[7] Its wing shape can also be affected by pregnancy in order to make flight more efficient.[8]
